Blended Courses: If your student is enrolled in a Blended course, you will hear from two Blended teachers (including your child's teacher), receive information related to your student's specific Blended class, and hear general strategies related to success in the Blended setting.

Get to know your Course Syllabus! On Monday, August 14, teachers will email a 'Welcome Letter' for each course in which you are enrolled. Once you join the course, you will be able to access the course syllabus. We highly suggest keeping it in a safe and convenient place, so that you can frequently view it. Knowing when you have papers and projects due is so important for passing the course and keeping up your grades. Having the syllabus will allow you to plan ahead and give yourself proper time to complete every assignment and get great grades!
